That would be a very cool move. 2 thumbs up if we get there, WIN, and do that for him. But the list shouldn't stop there. About the only players I'd hesitate at is trader Hutch and Etric freaking Pruitt.

I don't feel bad for him. He made his choice. And if he were still here, would the events of the past two years remained the same?

It would be cool if they mailed him a ring though. He's a class act and obviously one of the greatest Seahawks ever. I'm looking forward to him raising the 12thman flag in the NFC Championship game in a year or two.

He didn't make a choice to leave the team. They called him and said they wouldn't be signing him when he still hoped that he was going to play for us for the '11 season. Remember that he led the team workouts during the lockout offseason. It was heartbreaking hearing him on the radio (B&S I think?) talking about driving by the facility while the Seahawks were practicing, and he was on his way to the airport to get to Tennessee.

You could say that he chose not to retire, though.

I have been thinking this a lot - that when we do win a Super Bowl, I will be sad that #8 wasn't along for the ride.

I totally agree with the sentiment that this is a different team and it's a much better team. Better now than the '05 team was at its peak, and way way way more upside. More upside in the players, and way more upside in the front office that is just going to keep feeding the roster more Pro Bowlers.

Mailing Matthew a ring would be pretty sweet, although I would be ok with sending every member of the 2005 team a ring to be honest. But also lets not get ahead of ourselves, lets focus on beating the Rams!
